This is a cutesy version of the Noah story that completely removes the point of the biblical narrative. In this version, God gives no reason at all for sending the flood (in fact, he didn't even send it), and nobody dies. When the ark arrives, Noah prays to thank God for a shiny, clean earth. And the rainbow means "I love you." It has nothing to do with the rest of the story. So much for divine justice and amazing mercy.

If you really think the truth of the biblical story is too unpleasant for a two-year-old, perhaps it'd be better to wait until they're old enough to tell them the real story, rather than give a distorted image of God's character.

I am amazed! I have searched and searched for books that will hold my 2 and 3 year old's attention and I have finally found it!! Not only do they thoroughly enjoy the story and repeat each page I read but they also love the vivid illustrations. Quality Christian books are a rarity for the toddler age and I consider this one worth it's weight in gold. I'm buying them all!

We bought this as a gift for a baptism. My kids loved it so much we bought one for us also. Great sturdy board book for reading to baby as well as simple wrods and engaging pictures for pre-schoolers.

The artwork is great and the story is accurate. Right on!

My daughter is 15 months old and loves this book! We have been reading it just about every day since we got it when she was 4 months old. The illustrations are great and the words are very simple. I was looking for a book about Noah that was simple but informative and this is it! Try other Patricia Pingry books also, they are great!

An excellent story of Noah for a 3 year old. We love reading this book over and over and over again! The cardboard pages are especially appreciated for a toddler who likes to tote!

The artwork in this book is very good. My 13-month-old son likes the pictures in this book a lot, and frequently asks to read it. His favorite page is the one with the sound effects: "Plop! went the raindrops. Crash! went the lightning. Boom! went the thunder. Noah was not afraid." I think the words could be a little more interesting / better. I think this book is suitable for the 6 months to maybe 3 years range
